I also got in under media and got there at 8:30, it was awesome to see all the supercars in a line!

I Guess I have to make my own thread? (i think this would be better in transportation)

not true, what about all those threads in transportation (show your xxx)? I think the "Show" threads its ok, but for single threads its not. I could be totally wrong and making myself embarassed though.

You can post more if asked to do so, but the starting point is 8 images per thread.

The 'show' threads tend to have multiple people posting one or two images as they generally ask for the best image a person has on a particular topic.

Seems this thread is more about cars than photography. ???

Some wonderful machinery to look at .Cheers.

yea, its my static shot camera of choice, since it has the moveable LCD screen, and its small, i can get in some otherwise tight places a DSLR wouldn't. If i used my DSLR as a static camera, id feel so limited (since you have to look through the view finder or wildly guess if you don't).

EDIT: if you want to see more of my pics, theres a gallery on supercars.net (main page)
